I can't believe you took her to a haunted house as part of a study.

It is scary.

I mean, I'm not into haunted houses, but this looks like a scary place.

What are you seeing?

What's even funnier here is that other papers have cited this paper with quite seriousness and been like, look, they even took her to a haunted house, guys.

And when Justin took SM, it was actually Halloween when the owners of the sanatorium really go to town and they create this very intense experience.

Exactly.

I want a mojito.

She never screamed, never jumped backwards, never flinched.

Justin wrote she would gaze with amusement at the monstrous creatures, smiling or laughing at them, in one instance even scaring an actor.

And I have to say that at this point reading about SM, I was a little bit jealous about what it would be like to have no amygdala, to live like that, just to think of all the things that I haven't done in my life because I've been afraid.

Justin was like, you know, we need that Spidey sense telling us don't jump into that water, don't eat those poisonous berries.

Yeah, I mean, don't go down that street.

Don't approach that person or that snake.

Here's Justin again.

Why was she up for this?

Like she's been studied for decades.

Why does she let herself do this?

So here's Justin.

You drunk the red wine before writing that line, no doubt.
